Those who know me and my east-coast-fast-talk know that I also topic-hop readily and without warning. And so, while it might not be a complete surprise, it was at least rather entertaining in that gut-busting sort of way when I, seemingly, referred to a female acquaintance as a "loose ho".
Of course, the fact is that I had just recently (on the order of milliseconds) said the phrase "gotta take care of the loose hose" in reference to a friend's comments about his recent vehicular malfunction. It was just then that said female acquaintance rounded the corner and entered my line of sight (the others had their backs to her) when I said "there she is!" though not meaning to associate my former statement with the latter.
Worse yet is the fact that when everyone else at the table burst out in laughter, it was still far too many moments before I realized what I had done.
My apologies, undisclosed female acquaintance, that I called you a ho. And a loose one at that (though I'm not sure there's another kind -- still not referring to you either way of course).
